Abstract
A prosthesis comprising two tubular brackets (10, 11)
connected in sliding manner and securable by means of
pins to the ends of the fractured bone. The two brackets
(10, 11) are connected by means of a flexible cable (36)
the ends of which are connected by a cable tensioning
device (37, 38). The cable (36) is guided by a series of
circumferential grooves (41, 42) arranged alternately on
the two brackets (10, 11), and is tightened by the cable
tensioning device (38) in such a manner as to exert,
between the two brackets (10, 11) and in one operation,
a traction or compression force evenly distributed along
the brackets (10, 11).
